Gruppe-S UEL Header Review...Subie-Rumble On A Budget

Hey all, I just wanted to share a review of the Gruppe-S UEL header. Check out each of the videos. If you are only interested in the sound, check out just the second video (paired with a TRD Cat-Back).

The first is more of a comprehensive review of my experience with the header so far and living with a cat-less header on the twins.

Let me know what you all think!

the Gruppe-S UEL is the best quality bang-for-the-buck UEL header out there IMO. I love mine. I recently got a catless resonated front pipe and it sounds really good, although slightly louder than I would like.

I agree I really have no complaints about the product... The header and cat-back make just the right sound for my daily drive.

I'd definitely recommend these headers to anyone for the price and pretty much the same quality as Tomei you can't really go wrong.

Yes, I was pretty hesitant to believe the quality was on par with Tomei, but after having it for an extended amount of time, this header does not disappoint.
